I was just wondering. The program I wrote would just kill all outputs, when the estop is reset, you have to start every thing back up.
"...by code"? I'm guessing that means "law", not PLC program code. He is probably right. When it come time to do inspection, it is often easier to look at the wiring diagram to see that there is a single switch that turns off all the dangerous outputs.But my master electrician said it should kill all control power and the machines outputs by code.
